Major players in oil & gas industry form strategic alliance

The mutually beneficial coalition of the extensive construction and service capabilities of Mannai's Industrial Group, specifically Mideast Constructors (Mecon) & Mannai Marine, and Australian owned Worley's global renown as a leading design and engineering company, offers clients a unique combination of local experience and international expertise.

Whilst Mannai has the capacity and expertise to carry out procurement, fabrication, installation and project management for Offshore and Onshore projects, Worley has a proven track record and experience in high level design, engineering and project management. Founded in the 1960s, today Worley is a leading engineering organisation in the international arena. Worley has 32 offices in 15 countries including key centres in Saudi, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Doha. By pooling their resources, Mannai and Worley together will be able to provide comprehensive EPC (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) and facility support services to diverse industries, especially Oil & Gas and Process industries, both in Qatar and throughout the Region.

Mannai Corporation Vice Chairman and Managing Director, Abdulla Mannai is justifiably delighted at this significant development in his business. "Worley's experience in some of the biggest oil and gas projects in Asia and Australasia will be of enormous benefit to our clients, and we look forward to working together as one team, deploying our combined resources to the benefit of business in Qatar", he said today.

Nick Milani, Worley's Alliance Sponsor is equally pleased by the association with Mannai. "The reputation of Mecon and Mannai Marine as first-rate construction companies complements ours as a major international player. The perfect fit between the companies will enable clients to benefit from a more streamlined service, from inception through design, construction and maintenance, affording them the highest quality standards with significant economies in both cost and time."
